Lin Chen shrugged: "Although the school board members are not idle people, what if they are crazy? At least at the long table meeting just now, I didn't see any normal people, but I saw quite a few crazy people!"
Elizabeth turned to Angers: "Headmaster, aren't you surprised?"
Angers simply sat down on the sofa and said, "Even now you still don't understand? Behind Lin Chen stands that mysterious school board member!"
He had stood at the top of the world for hundreds of years and had a clear understanding of such things.
Elizabeth looked at Lin Chen in disbelief: "Is that really true?"
Lin Chen nodded helplessly.
I originally intended to interact with you as a student, but instead I was met with disdain and alienation.
Stop pretending, show your cards.
Currently, he only holds 75% of the board of directors' position, which is enough for him to speak on behalf of the mysterious board of directors.
Angers said that it was not bad that there was a mysterious school board member standing behind Lin.
You thought the people being interrogated were ordinary students in the college, but little did you know that this was actually the complete board of trustees!
The mysterious school board member was present, and Lin Chen cast the final vote!
Elizabeth's eyes widened instantly: "So that's how it is! What are you to him? His heir? Or his illegitimate child?"
Lin Chen rolled his eyes at her: "Could your imagination be any more vivid?"
Elizabeth took a deep breath: "I did some research on you before the meeting started. You are from the Lin family of China, but you are not valued in the Lin family, which is why you were sent to study at Kassel College. Logically speaking, your family background should not produce an S-level descendant, so I guess you are the offspring of some big shot."
"Come on!" Lin Chen waved his hand. "I, Lin Chen, am where I am today not because of anyone, but entirely because of my own hard work..."
"Have you earned this through hard work?" Elizabeth tried to say.
Lin Chen thought to himself, "What nonsense is there about hard work? In the world of mixed-race people, bloodline is king. I got all this by just checking in!"
"Are you working hard?" Lin Chen asked.
Elizabeth shook her head, her answer to this point was quite straightforward.
Born with a silver spoon in their mouth, they have lived a life of luxury since childhood.
She inherited a huge fortune in her early twenties, and she believes that her success has nothing to do with hard work.
Elizabeth looked at Lin Chen thoughtfully. Lin Chen didn't say anything more, but simply walked over and sat down next to Angers.
Angers opened a bottle of fine wine from the table. It was a local specialty red wine, not aged for long, but with a rich and mellow taste.
Elizabeth also came over: "Principal, are you aware of Lin Chen's situation?"
"I don't know!" Angers poured the red wine into the decanter and skillfully swirled it to aerate.
"Then why aren't you surprised? Or curious?"
“You are a member of the school board, I am a member of the school board, and from today onwards, Lin Chen is also a member of the school board! There are secrets and reservations among the members of the school board.”
Elizabeth frowned: "You said Lin Chen is also a member of the school board, I don't understand what you mean."
Angers suddenly said, "Do you know Passy?"
Elizabeth nodded: "Parsegatuso, the head secretary of the Gattuso family, has a very high rank and power!"
“That’s right,” Angers said. “Within the Gattuso family, he’s the head of the family’s secretary, but outside the Gattuso family, he’s the head of the family, understand?”
Elizabeth pondered, "Outside of the Gattuso family, Percy represents the entire Gattuso family. Lin Chen is now someone the mysterious school board member cares about, so his presence here also gives him a place on the school board!"
Angers smiled and handed him a glass of red wine: "Well said, my child. I'm so glad to see you've grown up!"
Elizabeth accepted the wine: "Thank you, Headmaster."
"This one's for you." Angers handed Lin Chen another glass of red wine. "Although I'm also curious about your relationship with the mysterious school board member, there are some things I won't pry into!"
Lin Chen rolled his eyes inwardly.
I didn't say a word, yet you all defined my identity in your minds.
I was even thinking about whether I should conceal my identity, but you all immediately assumed I was the agent of the mysterious school board member.
After all, this was the only possibility in their eyes, as Lin Chen's age and qualifications did not match the identity of the mysterious school board member at all.
However, this is for the best. With my current abilities, having the status of a school board member would be too ostentatious.
Moreover, he only holds a 75% stake in the school board.
In that case, appearing as an agent wouldn't be a bad idea.
Angers raised his glass: "Let's toast to today's victory. I'd love to see the look of utter dismay on Frost's grumpy face."
The three clinked glasses, and Lin Chen and Angers were the first to drink.
Elizabeth lifted the black veil from her face, revealing a breathtakingly beautiful face beneath.
She took a small sip of the red wine, then happily put down her glass.
"Lin Chen." Elizabeth looked at Lin Chen, "If you have any problems in Western Europe in the future, you can come to me. I will treat you with the highest courtesy of the Laurent family!"
"Thank you!" Lin Chen raised his wine glass. "If you come to China, you can look for me. You're used to Western food, so I'll take you to eat at a street food stall when you come."
Angers chimed in: "A street food stall in China? Sounds pretty good, can I join in?"
Lin Chen said helplessly, "Principal, have you ever heard of the term 'light bulb' in our country?"
Elizabeth didn't understand: "What does that mean?"
Angers downed his glass of red wine in one gulp, a satisfied smile on his face: "Lin Chen is calling on me, you guys chat, I have to go out for a bit!"
Lin Chen immediately gave a thumbs up; Angers was really giving him face in this regard.
This isn't a light bulb, it's practically a high-class wingman!
Angers pushed open the door and went out, hearing a faint commotion in the corridor.
It was the sound coming from the Gattuso family lounge; Frost's roar even pierced through the thick stone walls.
"Can someone explain to me why the mysterious school board member switched sides with Lin Chen at the last minute?!"
The man in the suit stood opposite him, listening respectfully to Froles's roar.
Parcigatuso, acting secretary to the Gattuso family.
Angers just used him as an example.
Percy held a document in his hands, his face also showing surprise.
“I’m sorry, Acting Patriarch,” Percy said. “According to our investigation, Lin Chen is from the Lin family of China, and so far I have no information on any contact between him and the mysterious school board member!”
"What else do you know!" Froles slammed a stack of documents into Percy's face. "Lin Chen made me lose all dignity at the board meeting. Our plan has failed, and Lin Chen will return to the academy unscathed!"
Percy paid no attention to Flotes's actions, bent down to pick up all the documents, rearranged them, and held them in his arms.
"Could it be that Angers arrogantly instructed them to do this!"
Frost gritted his teeth: "I know Angers. I really had him cornered, but the appearance of the mysterious school board member changed everything!"

“I have a question!”
"Say!"
"I really can't find any clues worth investigating about who this mysterious school board member is."
"I do not know."
Percy was taken aback: "You didn't know?"
Do you think I should know?
Percy nodded: "You are the acting head of the Gattuso family, and you wield even more real power than the head of the Pompeii family. How could you possibly know nothing about the mysterious school board member!"
Frost sighed: "I understand what you mean, but it's not just me, I'm afraid even Angers doesn't know who this mysterious school board member is."
Percy was taken aback; this wasn't as good as he had imagined.
Frost continued, "Do you think that while the identity of the mysterious school board member is kept secret, that's for ordinary people, and as one of the board members, I should know something about it?"
Percy nodded.
“You’re wrong!” Frost said. “The identity of the seventh board member is top secret, a secret that even we don’t know. Even Angers might not know his true identity!”
Percy thought for a moment: "Could someone who can help Lin Chen be from Lin Chen's family?"
"It's hard to say. The mixed-race people of China exist in the form of aristocratic families. These families have deep foundations, and our intelligence personnel would be sent to their deaths if they went there."
Percy nodded: "Understood, I'll find a way to investigate!"
Frost shook his head: "Forget it, investigating someone at the level of a school board member isn't a wise thing to do. Focus on Lin Chen, I need to know why the mysterious school board member would help Lin Chen!"
Percy adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses: "Understood! If necessary, do you need me to take action against Lin Chen?"
“No!” Frost said. “He struck at Caesar last year, and it took us a lot of effort to win him back. He is Caesar’s enemy, and I need to use him to restore Caesar’s confidence!”
"So what do I need to do?"
“I did gain something from the meeting just now. Kassel College will conduct a certain investigation into Lin Chen. As a member of the board of directors, I will send you with an investigation team to the college!”
Frost's face twisted into a sinister smile, his eyes flashing with a cold light!
